Bikes, Yikes!!

Okay so we had to go to the mission office this week.  And we're way over miles for the month (because we had to drive the Russian Sisters all over) so we we're talking with the Assistants and we asked if we could get bikes. So...we did!

So we have been on bikes for 2 days!!! woot!!! and yesterday as we were biking home in the dark, no street lights, or reflector gear (cuz we haven't gotten it yet) Sister Nudd's bike Chain popped off in the middle of the road. But luckily we were close to  Brother McBride's house and I knew he is a bike guy so we went there. And he fixed her bike. Her handlebars almost fell off too.

That's the crazy story for the day!!

But this week I finished reading Alma. I feel like there's a lot we can learn from the war Chapters.  I love them so much!! We can learn a lot from Mornoni, Pahoran (I don't think I spelled that right...) Helaman, and everyone else!!

Back to Beaver Lake

Alrighty!! So this week I sent Sister McClain home so I had to be with the Beaverlake Sisters till transfers...and guess what's funny!? I got transferred back to Beaverlake!! My companion is Sister Nudd. She's really funny. I'm so excited to be able to serve with her at this time.

So something cool, Sister Choi told me "you build your testimony so when you go through tough times your testimony will hold you." (I can't remember if that's exactly how she said it...hehe but I think that is so true.)  Your testimonies hold you. I know mine has. It's just so amazing how simple the gospel is. I just love it so much and I know there is a lot still for me to learn.  And I can't wait.

The Fireside

Sorry everyone, I forgot to do one last week!! My bad! But hey, at least you have one this week right?
so this week we had our fireside. It was a success. It went really well....except for the fact that no non-members came. But that is alright, we rekindled the missionary spirit in all the members that came!  So the next one that will happen will be even better!! :D

Oh and also our ESL (English Second Language) is starting up this week!! woot!! We're so excited!! (I'm not going to lie though I'm hoping to pick up more Chinese from the class ^_^ I just really love languages).

We also met with A____ this week! It went really well. Although he's holding back something.... but that's alright we'll figure it out. And I learned a new word from A____. "VolunTOLD." So instead of being volunteered your voluntold. I'm going to start using that. I like it.

Mosiah 16:9

He is the light and the life of the world; yea, a light that is  endless, that can never be darkened; yea, and also a life which is endless, that there can be no more death.

Good Week

Well this week has been good! So we're supposed to invite everyone to be baptized and we're supposed to keep track of how many we do then at the end of the day let our District Leader know so he can report it to the Zone Leaders. Even though a lot of people have been gone because of the holiday, we still tried to do that and while we were on exchanges we finally met M_____. Her daughter O______ went to Girl's Camp and other mutual activities and has loved it and we've been trying to contact her mom for awhile and we finally met her and she wants to be baptized on September 20th!!! :D woot!!

And we got more finalized for our fireside.

"How does God speak to you?"
"Can you have a personal relationship with God?"

Those are questions that will be on the flyer and it's on personal revelation. It's going to be on the 14th at 5pm at the Stake Center. So it's going to be really good. We're trying to let everyone know about it.
